Walk4Joseph: A gentleman will walk but never run
Fancy a brisk walk on Saturday morning? Then why not join the Joseph’s Goal Walk4Joseph heading from the DW to Bolton’s Reebok Stadium? It’s for a fantastic cause, plus there might be a pie in it for you. Hahah, your ears pricked up then, didn’t they? You don’t have to be a Latics fan, or […]

PWU Wigan Athletic Podcast No. 81: Toilet Thursday
Now, I know what you’re all thinking: “that Dan bloke takes longer unscheduled toilet breaks than the England cricket team after a Saturday night down at the local watering hole (allegedly).” Well, the truth is that I left the refrigerator running… yes, he’s in training for the Great North Run! Badum tish. It’s all a […]

PWU Wigan Athletic Podcast No. 68: Keeping Up With Pa Jones
My goodness, this Championship campaign has been so action-packed I’ve almost forgotten the Premier League exists. There were so many fallow periods last season that we had to make do with poxy Man City v Liverpool weekday matches with their bog standard quality of football and £30m+ players. No such nonsense this year, for we […]

Wigan 3-2 Bolton: The Finest ‘Arvest
Three short weeks ago, I was promoting this game as the Owen Coyle Festive Reunion Special, but I didn’t count on Father Davemas’ infamous impatience. I do admit it fills me with great satisfaction to hear Bolton’s chants of ‘we told you he was poop’ (*certain words censored to protect young eyes) as opposed to […]

Progress With Unity toasts its second new manager in the usual fashion – with a pint in the Springfield. Yep, after last week’s torrent of criticism aimed in the general direction of that bloke we’ve already forgotten about, the team have been unceremoniously banned from their usual Book Cycle studios! Don’t worry, much like… [insert […]

Ticket news: Three for £33 & Wigan v Bolton (H)
As has become customary, the club has announced its seemingly annual autumn/winter ticket offer ahead of a packed schedule to close out 2013. Latics fans can step right up to see the next three home matches for the low, low price of 100 Rup- er, £33. That’s, erm… about ten quid a game, I think. […]

Bolton 1-2 Wigan: Cald’s well that (def)ends well
Wigan chalked up a well-earned first win of 2012 to close the gap to their local rivals and stay in touch at the bottom of the table. Gary Caldwell rose to head home Jean Beausejour’s corner and give his side the lead towards the end of a first half they largely controlled. Though Mark Davies […]

Wigan v Bolton (15 October 2011) photos
This was one of those games you wish you’d brought a cap for, especially if you’re towards the back of the East Stand. I did not and spent 3/4 of the game shielding my eyes from the sun, as it was a surprisingly clement afternoon for Wigan in October. It kind of made up for […]

Wigan 1-3 Bolton: One step forward, three back
Hmm… how to dissect this one? Best to start with good news and build up to the disappointing parts, otherwise one might become too depressed to even hit the ‘read more’ link. Yep, positive points are always a good hook. Happily, the ‘preview‘ I posted two days ago transpired to be a tad erroneous: both […]

Love thy neighbour: Wigan v Bolton preview
Welcome back, Latic fanatics, to the weekly grind of domestic football. I sincerely hope you’ve had a good two weeks’ recuperation because you’re gonna need all your energy for this weekend’s absolutely massive north west derby. No, I’m not talking about that Liverpool-Man United TV programme thingy Sky seem to be promoting incessantly, because an […]
